Welcome to mod_rewrite, the Swiss Army Knife of URL manipulation!
This module uses a rule-based rewriting engine (based on a regular-expression parser) to rewrite requested URLs on the fly. It supports an unlimited number of rules and an unlimited number of attached rule conditions for each rule to provide a really flexible and powerful URL manipulation mechanism. The URL manipulations can depend on various tests, for instance server variables, environment variables, HTTP headers, time stamps and even external database lookups in various formats can be used to achieve granular URL matching.
This module operates on the full URLs (including the
path-info part) both in per-server context
(httpd.conf) and per-directory context
(.htaccess files and <Directory>
blocks) and can even generate query-string
parts on result. The rewritten result can lead to internal
sub-processing, external request redirection or even to an
internal proxy throughput.
But all this functionality and flexibility has its drawback: complexity. So don't expect to understand this entire module in just one day.
